Indiana, Pennsylvania Volume XVII
TO THE SENIORS:
It has been my happy privilege as Principal to have been
associated with the first senior class to go out from this institution
under the title of State Teachers College, Indiana, Pennsylvania.
This year has been an important mile-stone in many ways in
the educational history of an institution which has been function-
ing for over a half century.
The class of 1928 in the years that are to come will look back
with a great deal of pride and satisfaction to that day when they
were pronounced graduates of State Teachers College, Indiana.
It is my sincere wish that you may, through the enthusiasm of
your young lives, carry happiness, joy and light to thousands of
the youth of our Commonwealth.
Irene H. Wilson in her poem, "The Senior", says:
"You will go out this June from cloistered hall
Of academic wisdom, from quiet walks
Beneath the campus trees, from starlit talks
Of youth and life and God. Your future calls
You into the swirl of cities and of men:
You will not come this way again.
You touch my hand and speak sweet, awkward words
Of thanks and parting. You will remember me
As long as singing birds and stars shall be and yet —
You will forget."
I hope that you will be privileged many times to come this way
again and that you will never forget your Alma Mater.
Sincerely yours,
C. R. FOSTER.
To
DR. CHARLES R. FOSTER.
Principal of our College,
whose inspiring personality
and sympathetic interest in us as students
have in one year linked him closely
with the most cherished memories
of our senior days,
we, the class of 1928,
dedicate this seventeenth volume
of our college yearbook.
The Oak.
Presentation
"The old order changeth yielding place to the new.
And God fulfills himself in many ways
Lest one good custom should corrupt the world."
— Tennyson.
Out of the past have evolved all traditions and institutions.
The old has always been the foundation upon vi^hich the new was
built. During the years, Indiana has passed through various
stages of evolution until now it is no longer a normal school based
upon a two-year course, but a professional school of college rank
offering a degree in education. This is Indiana's first year as a
teachers college, and a new trend of development has begun. One
of the most marked features has been the change in the yearbook.
Due to this transitional period the name of the annual was changed
from "The Instano", a grouping of the first few letters of each of
the words "Indiana State Normal", to "The Oak". This name was
chosen because of the many fine specimens of oaks which have
been a part of the campus for hundreds of years, and because of
the strength of character, the slow but steady growth, and the
enduring qualities which this mighty tree symbolizes. Progress,
the keynote of Indiana, is a combination of these three significant
characteristics. We have tried to make this annual one that will
be in keeping with this ideal of our school.
This book is presented with the earnest hope that it will bring
the Class of 1928 pleasant reminiscences and recollections of days
filled with work, play, and friendship.
— The Editor.

The Oak
Great Oak, that stands upon the green.
Reveal to me thy bliss of life supreme.
My hopes are stirred, my anchor weighed.
Oh grant to me thy wisdom undismayed
Of victory o'er seductive gain,
And lift my eyes from earth's grim deeps of pain.
Thy arms to birds at close of day
Give rest and peace along their weary way;
Teach me. to care for weak and strong
That I, like you, may earthly joy prolong.
Thou Oak, hast lived through strife and storm;
Thy sturdy limbs from thee were well-nigh torn.
E'en though, great Oak, thy life has been.
Live on, great Oak, a life of God with men.
— Wm. B. Gailey.

Such activities have gained recognition among educators as a vital

this movement in our college, one finds these organizations founded on

The Indiana Penn
In lOZi. when the Indiana Penn first made its appearance, it was composed
of one sheet that was typed when enough material from the composition classes was
obtained to make up the paper.
l-rom 1023 to lOJr .Mr. De Witt Ka\. of the Indiana l:vening Gazette, publish-
ed the paper, ani.1 received his remuneration from the proceeds of the sale of singl-i
copies.
In 102(1-27, the paper was an eight-page publication, issued bi-weekl\\
This \ear, for the first time, the Penn has been published weekl\ . For the first
time, also, the subscription has been included in the registration fee, and each
student now receives a copy of the paper.
In atklition to campus, department, and organization news, the Penn has such
special columns as ■What Others .-Xre Doing," "Interviewing Reporter," "Pen
Pricks." "Personals," ".As The Earth Revolves." and ".As The World Progresses."
the last two of which interpret world events from the point of view of geography
and history.
Carrying out the plan put into operation last vear. each of tiie more important
staff positions has underclass assistants w ho are thus prepared to carry on the work
of the following _\ear. The editor-in-chief and business manager are elected by the
staff at the end of each year from those holding the positions of assistant editors
and assistant business managers.
The Penn is controlled bv a committee of eleven students, elected in September
of each vear bv the several departments, and six facultv members. The faculty
members are chosen by the Facultv Club, v.ith the exception of the editoripl
adviser, who is an English teacher appointed b\ the Principal of the school. This
committee consists of the Principal of the college, ex-officio, the editorial adviser.
the financial adviser, the Dean of Instruction, the Flead of the English Department,
and a representative of the facultv at large.
The Penn provides an opportunitv for creative writing among the students. It
is the medium through which news and ^tudent opinion is expressed, and through
its policv it encourage> worthv school enterprise>, promotes good scholarship, and
unifies school spirit.

THE Q
A ^H-ZKJ
Intermediate Education Club
The senior students of tlie Intermediate Department met on Januar\' 12, i'-)27
and organized the Intermediate Education Club. A constitution was written by a
committee composed of the following members: Francis Spraggon, Lillie Weinstein,
Louise Gordon, and Helen Grotefend. Miss Jane .VlcGrath was cho^en as sponsor.
The constitution was submitted and immediately adopted.
The purpose of the club is three-fold: to establish a bond of friendship among
the students and the alumni: to assist in keeping up the ideals and standards of the
Indiana State Teachers College; and to cooperate with the other organizations of
the school for the promotion of educational progress and loyalty to our institution.
Under the able guidance of Miss McGrath and an efficient staff and council the
Intermediate Education Club progressed rapidly; business meetings were held fre-
quently-; current problems of the department were discussed and settled, and man>'
social gatherings delighted the members. The group owes much to the present of-
ficers who cooperated splendidly and worked diligenti\' and earnestly' to keep the
club active and progressi\e.
This year the club has greatly increased its membership. 1 he roster shows about
350 members, 189 of whom are seniors.
On October fourteenth the club gave a very delightful party. An interesting
program was furnished by several Intermediate Seniors. It consisted of a Japanese
solo dance by Kathleen Furner, a violin solo by Corrine Dozer, and a chorus dance
by a group of eight girls. Social dancing, dainty refreshments, and unique favors
contributed to the pleasure of the evening.
On February ele\enth the senior members of the club entertained the junior
members at a ver\- delightful Valentine part)'. Members of the faculty who are
closely connected with the Intermediate Department were guests. .\ very interest-
ing program was given consisting of a reading bv Virginia Fried, a vocal solo by
Dorothy Wurthner accompanied at the piano by Miriam Baker, and a minuet which
was danced by eight members of the club in colonial costumes. When the program
was completed, the group participated in social dancing. Refreshments consisted of
punch and tiny heart cakes served buffet style.
The club is planning a breakfast during Commencement W eek, at \s hich time it
is hoped many of the charter members will be present.
It is the desire of the Intermediate Group to be of service to its .\lma .Mater.
With this thought in mind a contribution of eighty dollars was made toward the
Lodge. During the second semester of this \ear the club endeavored to make even
a larger contribution.
The members are ht)ping that the club will continue to progress as it has done
in the past and with the coming \ears will proudly- bear the ideals and standards
which have been set for it.

THE OAK 1928
The Junior High School Department
Four \ears ago, uiuler the elirection oi .Mr. \\ al>h. llic Junior lligli School De-
partmunt was organized into a social group. .At that time the department began a
\er\' active program which has been i\ept up ever since. I his year the organization
again chose Mr. Walsh as their adviser.
1 his group has a three-fokl purpose, educational, social, and political, and it also
endea\ors to create a better uni.lerstanding between faculty aiul students. The de-
partment strives lor high scholarship and encourages social activity both for them-
selves ani.1 for the student budv as a whole. In the social gatherings facultx aiul
students can meet on an e(.|ual basis, cUid the resulting feeling of friendship ancl
mutual undeistandmg is probably the most important result of these meetings. The
group tries to create a spirit of wholesome competition among the different depart-
ments, which adds greatly to the general life of the school.
Regular meetings of the department are held the first I-ridav of each month. ,\t
these meetings are presented programs consisting of educational talks, music, read-
ings, and novelt\- acts. Some of the speakers have been Dr. Foster, Mr. Walsh, Dr.
Davis, A4r. Whitm\re. and Miss Parks. The first semi-anntial part\- of the year was
held on December 17 in Leonard Mall. .Another part\ and an outing at the "Lodge"
were held during the secon(.l semester for the new students.
The Junior Fligh School Department fosters two clubs, the .\lpha Omega Geo-
graphers and the Sci-Fli Science Club.
The present seniors of the department are divided into two groups: nine graduat-
ing in the three-\'ear coLUse. and four recei\ing their degrees in education. Each
student selects ma|ors in two fields. .Among this \ear's graduates there are eight
majors in social studies, six in fmglish. four in mathematics and science, and two in
geography.

Home Economics Department
" 1 iniu slaiuls still : v, u iikin c nn.'
The I lome Economics Department has doubled its enrollment this \'ear. 1 his is
probabl\' due to the fact that the degree of Bachelor of Science in Home Economics
is now iiranted. Last year two degrees were conferred, but this >'ear there were nine
stuelents who receixed a degree from this department.
The first real get-together meeting of the year was a tea, on South Campus, given
b\' the department in honor of the t]rst-\ear students and sponsored bv the second-
Near class.
The outstanding extra-curricular acti\ity of the department is the i lome Econ-
omics Club which met soon after school opened. The election of new oilicers took
place and a hike to Reservoir I lill was planned in ortler that everyone might become
better acquainted.
On \'o\ember 4, the department enjoxed the privilege of seeing the internation-
all\-known costume designer. Paul Poiret, o( Paris, France.
The annual exhibit was held just before Christmas \'acation. The great number
that attended and the delightful comments on the v\ork displav'ed were much ap-
preciated b\- the department.
It has been the custom of the I lome Economics C^lub to plan some gift or deed
for someone who is less fortunate. Ihus the purpose of the club is much more than
just a social one. This \ear the club sent tift\ pounds of magazines to a native
school in I loonah. .Maska, The following letter was recei\'ed from .Mrs. Clark, a
teacher in the school, acknowledging their arrival:
"Vou can imagine our surprise when vour package came. Many of our friends
ha\ e wished to send us magazines, but when they found the postal rates the\' did not
have the courage. 1 ha\ e given awa\ our magazines as fast as we could spare them,
and if you could see the faces of these tine-looking men and women as they put them
inside their coats with such a smile of joy. you would know it was more than worth
while."
The first social function of the second semester was a "backwareis" partv held
.March ^ in Recreation Mall. The members and their friends came dressed back-
wards and the entertainment was given backwards. The party was thoroughly en-
jo\ed by evervone. The closing event of the year was a May Day breakfast given
on .Mav 1.

Art Club
I hf Art C^lub was organized durinji the \ear 1'-)2t-2(i uiuler the inlluence (il Miss
Marion G. Miller. Each year it has been developed extensivel\' by its enthusiastic
members. Hver\' art student and member of the art facult\' not onl\' belongs, but
attends regularlx .
The Art Club. e\en though it is the smallest organization in Indiana State I each-
ers College, conducts such a high type of entertainment and instruction that it is
proclaimed even outside its own department.
I'he ultimate purpose of the club is to stimulate and direct a permanent interest
in art. Last \'ear the club's main ac!iie\ement was "The Fashion Show", a review
of charming costumes from Cleopatra to the modern vogue. This year the club,
with the cooperation of the Home Economics Department, was able to bring Paul
Poiret to Indiana to give his lecture. "The Art of Costume", and to demonstrate the
draping of costumes on students as models. It is felt that the club has been particu-
larly successful in the presentation of "The Carnival" written in the department for
the purpose of showing prospectixe teachers the possibilities of unic^ue costumes and
sets for the stage, which uere designed and executed by the art students. The skilled
tumblers, the sinister snake charmer, the shrewd Hindu fortune-teller, the gay mat-
adors, the gallery of freaks, to say nothing of the clever clowns, all contributed to
the general success of the event.
The club's two social functions the first semester took the form of an annual
picnic to Daugherty's Hill, and a Christmas party at the Yellow Lantern Tea Room.
During the second semester a Washington's Birthday party was held, also at the
Yellow Lantern Tea Room. The last and perhaps most beautiful social function
was a flower festival in Ma\'.
The club has coni.lucteil a most interesting educational program at its monthly
meetings. Ihe rolk>\\ing persons have contributed:
Mr. X'alentine CI Kirbw State .\rt Director of Penns\lvania —
"Some Encouraging Developments in .-Xrt."
Dr. Charnock of the Episcopal Church — " Fhe .\rt Treasures of
Pisa."
Miss Parks — "Readings from .Modern Poems"
Miss Flegal — ".Art .Appreciation"
.Mrs. .Macdonald — "Re\iew of .Modern Stories"
■Miss Grassmuck — "Geographic Influence upon .Art"
.Miss Buchanan — ".Account of Trip .Abroad"
Mrs. .Arntz — ".Art of South .\mciica"
Miss .McGrath — ".Art .Appreciation"
.Although the club has been in existence for onh' three \ears. what it has accom-

The student V. .\1. C. A. of Indiana State 1 eacliers College, an oii^anization
which has grown to be one of the strongest men's clubs at Indiana, was founded dur-
ing the first week of October, U)27. With the guidance of Mr. Pickett, State Secre-
tary of the Student 'N', .M. C^ .\.. the organization began activity on a firm foundation
of forts' charter members.
1 he major purpose oi the uigani/.ation is to promote a better moral and social
relationship among the students at the college.
The ^^ M. C. .A. Executive Committee was electe^i by the organization, and con-
sists of tile following men: 1 lomer Ihnmpson. president: Robert Clark, vice-presi-
dent: .Mehin Mitchell, secretary: and Lemuel Binne\, treasurer. The cabinet, in
conforming to the constitution, appointee! Paul (Larson de\otions leader, Raymond
Fr\e, recreations leader, 1 low ard Sw isher, commtmity service leader, and Ro\
ilickes. membership leader.
Mr. W. M. W'hitmyre was appointed b\ unanimous consent of the organization,
to act as facult\' adviser.
The organization has been active in work outside of our own campus. A re-
presentative was sent to the New Castle CA>nference. Indiana not onlv had a dele-
gation present at the National (Conference, hut was also represented on the program.
On the Campus, the "V has been doing work which has interested the whole
student body. By means of the organization's diligent elTorts, Mr. Frederick Vining
Fisher, noted lecturer, traveler, and author, was brought before our student
bodv. The V. .\1. C. .A. presented the school inlirmarv with a new radio outfit.
.Manv facultv and 'l'. W. C], .\. members were guests at an afternotm tea. given b_v
the bovs in their new club room.
Since our >'. .M. C. .\. holds a high place among other student ">■. .M. C. .\'s of
the state, it is our desire to do a piece of real work w hich onlv an organization ol this
calibre can do.

Near the end of the semester last \ear the i^irls that had registered for this \ear
were assignei.1 "big sisters." The "big sisters" were to write to the "little sisters" and
tell them of Indiana and answer any questions thai they might have concerning the
school. Man\- happ\' acquaintances grew out of this plan when the girls met this
year.
The season was happil\ started olf b\ a "get acquainted" partw The second-year
girls were eager to meet old acquaintances, and the tirst-\'ear girls were anxious to
break the ice antl meet both old ami new memlu-rs of the "\ ."
The Campus Service lor new members was a most inspiring one. More than two
hundred girls took part. 1-ach carrieil an unlit candle and lighted it from a big
candle representing the Laght of the W orkf 1 he procession from John Sutton Hall
to East Campus was a silent one until the candles were lighted when the girls sang
"Y" songs, with flickering candles for light.
Ever\- I-rida\ night tiuring the entire year the girls sold cand\' through the
dormitories. This proved to be a prosperous and pleasing undertaking.
Teas were held e\er\ week in the "^ " room to create a more social feeling among
all the girls of the school, both members and non-members. .\t first the facilities for
serving tea were \'er\' poor so the girls decided th.it an urn would greatl\- improve the
tea-serving situatit>n. .X beautiful silver urn, lra\ , sugar and creamer, and spoons
were purchased. Then later the smaller articles, tra\s, dish pan. tea towels, lemon
fork, and cake dish were bought so that now the girls can serve, quite aciequatel}',
several hundred. I wn of the most successful teas were the \alentine and Japanese
tea.
Shorth- before the second semester the "V" room was completely renovated un-
der the careful supervision of .Miss Mouslon and 1-dna Hall. The drab walls were
painted; the woodwork was made bright; the furnilure was arranged as to color
centers, and the pictures were hung appropriatelv. Then the fireplace which hadn't
been used for years was allowed to burn again and add charm to the room. The last
thing done was the making of new curtains. '1 he girls showed their abilit\- to sew.
and now e\eryone profits b\ the labors of a few .
The present "\" .girls lea\e to the girls of 1"2^) a challenging record and a room
unsurpassed in coziness.

The Newman Club
On Sunday October 2. 1Q27 the Catholic Students of the State Teachers College
of Indiana met at St. Bernard's Church for the purpose of organizing a Newman
Club. There were about a huntlred students present who \oted enthusiasticall\- for
the formation of the club.
The Newman Club is an organisation similar to the \. W. C .A. and the Y. \\ .
C. A. Its purposes are spiritual and social growth. Both men and women of the
college are eligible to membership. While it is a club formed chiefl\' to look after
the social activities of CLatholic students. an\' students v, ho wish to attend are
cordially welcomed.
The first meeting of the club was a social gathering at which more than a hun-
dred students and facultv members were present. The social hour consisted of music
and games. The Ladies' .Aid Societv served refreshments.
At the first business meeting of the club the Reverend N. P. .McNellus presented
the society with the complete works of Cardinal Newman, and the Re\e'rend James
Brady sketched the life and works of the Cardinal. It is the purpose of the Newman
Club, from time to time, to have interesting discussions and lectures on subjects of
interest to its members.
The meetings are held at St. Bernar(.i's Church. For the past \ear .Miss 1 lelen
Donnelly has been in charge of the musical part of the programs.

Literary Society
Ljterar\- Societv . which meets e\er\ .Mnnda\ e\fning at se\en in the College
Auditoruini. i> the outi;ro\\th of the two st)cieties. the Hrodelphian and the
Hyghenian, which, for many years, met the literary requirements of Indiana.
These societies outgrew their meeting halls about ten years ago, and, as there were
no suitable places to be used by the societies, the combined membership began meet-
ing in the .-Xuditorium. The\- continued this practice until the year 1926-27 when it
became necessary to annul the separate charters because of the state taxation. The
membership was then legally merged into one organization.
The present organization is conducted b\ the oflicers — a president. \ ice-presideiit,
secretar\'. and treasurer. .-X student council is responsible for the general conduct
of the audience at the meetings.
In arranging its programs the societ}' blends a three-fold purpose into one — the
presentation of programs that are educational, artistic, and recreational. Occasion-
alls- a program features one of these three aims, as. for example, the presentation of
"The Tra\'elers". a play b\' Booth Tarkington. w hich was educational. Othei
programs, which consisted of novelty song and dance numbers, were purely recrea-
tional. Besides these chief purposes, the societ\' aims to gi\e its members oppor-
tunit\' to appear before the public from time tti time, in .Monday e\ening perform-
ances.
d he Societv also presented a full evening's entertainment in the form of a three-
act pla\' on .April 27 and 28. The pla\' was entitled "Erstwhile Susan".
1-iom time to time professional talent is brought to Indiana under the auspices
of the Literar}' Society. This \ear, Ruth Draper, a dramatic reader, the Charles
Rann Kennedy Players in "The Servant in the House", Mr. and Mrs. Phidella Rice
of the Leiand Powers School of the Spoken Word at Boston, and Sidney Thompson,
artist of song and ballad, ha\ e figured in the programs presented b\- the Literary
Society.
.\t one of the .Monda\' night entertainments during the \"ear. the society deviated
by \ote of the members, from its usual custom of free admission to the wearers of
Literary buttons, and the program was gi\en o\er to a pla\- b\- an all-male cast.
The admission charged went towards buxing gold footballs for the graduating
athletic stars.
Literar\- holds an important place in the field of extra-curricular actixities at
Indiana. The old-time rivalr\- between the two societies has changed, with the
merging of the organizations into one. into an enthusiasm of the students tor the
organization, a pleasure in participating in its programs, and an enthusiastic and
generous support of the activities of the societw

Pen and Scroll
Tor some time pa^l a lu-cd lias been fell lor some nrgani/.alion w ilhin the school
which would have, as its aim. the encoura.'^ement of writing among those students
of the college interested in this kind of work. In answer to this need the Pen and
Scroll was organized. .As its name suggests, the power of the pen makes its influence
felt within the circle of the Pen and Scroll. The purpose ol the club is to foster and
tle\'elo|i the abilit\' to write, olTering aeivice and ciiticism at the same lime through
the medium of club discussions. .Moieoxei, the I'en and Scroll has as its ultimate
aim membership in the Ouill (Ilub. the national writing organization.
d he niembershi|i of the ckib is Innited to lwenl\ frmn the student bod\' and three
fiom the facullN . To become a member of the Pen and Scroll, the individual must
submit an original manuscript to the club to be voted upt)n fa\orabl\' b\' the mem-
bers before the applicant is eligible for admission In this wa\- the standards of
the club are kept high since onl\' those with some abilit\' can meet the rei.]uirements.
The club was organized at the beginning of the first semester umlei' the direction
of Mrs. Louise Macdonald, its constitution drawn up, and its ofiicers electe^l.

general geographic organization to which any student from any department in the
school might belong. Through the efforts of interested students, aided by Miss
Erna Grassmuck, the organization of the club was accomplished. The present
membership is 273.
The monthly meetings of the club have been vitalized by songs, pictures, ex-
hibits, games, dances, and stories of personal experiences. The programs have been
conducted chiefly by members of the club.
A visit to parts of America, Europe, Asia, and Africa formed one program.
Interesting specimens from some parts of the World v.ere secured from facultv
members and friends of club members. These specimens were in charge of silent
guardians, members of the club in costume; representing the people who had pro-
duced the articles At the end of the program they interpreted the specimens.
Their interpretations as well as the African game Bhoo, and the Scotch and Erench
s<jngs were heartily received not only as a program of the club but also as an assem-
bly activity.
A trip to our s(juth-west Indian country was visualized by stories, giving actual
experiences of club members. It was alsfj enlivened by an interpretive Indian dance
and game.
At one meeting of the club the Panama (Janal Zone was visited by means of
moving pictures.
A unique and interesting program dealing with Alaska was presented by the
Seventh Grade, Junior High School students.

successfully completed a given number of courses in geography. It was organized
as the Geography ('lub of Indiana State Normal in January, 1927, under the guid-
ance of Miss Zoe A. Thralls. There were seventeen charter members.
The purposes of the organization are to discuss further some aspects of geo-
graphy beyond the stage reached in the various courses and to cooperate with those
alumni in the field who desire information and assistance with their teaching prob-
lems.
The society in carrying on its work attacks some interesting problems of the da\-.
These discussions center around the geographic influences of these happenings.
The group talks, thus carried on. furnish the members v.ith geography as it can be
found in no other manner.
During the second semester, the club underto<jk a geographic survey of a part of
the town of Indiana and the surrounding territory. Eield trips and interviews con-
stituted the basis for the v.ork. The members were eagerly looking forward toward
the completion of the project. j«

The Department of Commerce
The Department of C^ommerce has entered upon its new college status with a
large enrollment and a great deal of interest and enthusiasm. Sexenteen stutlents
receive their degrees this year. According to the present enrollment of the Junior
Class, next year's degree class will be considerably larger. The Sophomore and
Preshman (Classes have enrollments that promise increasinglv larger degree classes
in the future.
The work of the \ ear ha^ been marked with a line tiegree of coojieralion between
teachers and students an^l a v\onderful spirit has prevailetl at all times. The
students, noted for their consistent and lo_\al effort^, have clone everything that is
reasonably possible to launch the new college curriculum with those high stamlards
of scholarship and professional spirit that alone can make the department stanti at
the very top as a commercial teacher-training institution.
During the vear. the Department of Commerce has endea\ored to contribute to
the professional growth of the commercial teachers of the entire Commonwealth,
especiallv in the periodical publication of the Commercial Exchange, which carries
a professional message to about a thousand commercial teachers in the sixt\-seven
counties of Penns>l\ania. The Exchange is dexotetl to the ad\ancement of com-
mercial education, and its pages contain outlines of newer methods, hints and sug-
gestions in classroom technique, exchanges of ideas among the teachers here and
there, and other matters of interest to commercial teachers generally We believe
that this is a very-worth-while contribution on the part of the Departmont.
The Department is proud of its contribution to the leadership of the college, in
the part that it has taken in various activities, such as athletics, V. W. C. A.. Y. M.
C. A., fraternities, sororities, clubs, committees, etc. All of the teachers of the
Department have done their part, as well, in a generous manner, in their participa-
tion in the general activities of the college. Mr. 1 lill. Director of the Department of
Commerce, has served as president of the Facult\- Club.
The Department is tr\'ing as best it can, to carry out the policies laid ilov. n by
our new president of the College. Dr. Foster, and its greatest ambition is to help him
to realize those high ideals anti standards that he has set forth as the stepping stones
to a Greater Indiana.
\\'ith some ilegree of pride lor what the Department has accomplished in \\vj
past, and with a deep realization of the wonderful opportunities and great responsi-
bilities that lie aheatl, we shall go into the future with even greater determination
to rentier the very best contribution v, ithin our powers to the advancement of the
interests of Indiana and the cause of commercial education in the Commonwealth of
Pennsxhania.

The Junior Chamber of Commerce
The Junior C~liamber of Commerce was organizei.1 during tiie term lOii-iO for
liie purpose of promoting interest in tiie organization of commercial clubs in high
schools and to train teachers in the organization of such clubs; to discover and
serve the needs of the Commercial Teacher Training Department of the Indiana
State Teachers College; to furnish a means of developing professionally; to encour-
age a social contact: to become conversant with modern progressive business
methods and systems: and to fLirnish a means of gaining contact with other schools
and associations.
During the present year, under the leadership of our president. Gertrude Lind-
quist, the constitution has been revised and modified to fit our present needs as the
Department of Commerce of the Indiana State Teachers College.
Meetings are held once a month and important business matters as well as cur-
rent topics of the business world are discussed. To add spice to these meetings, it
is the custom to furnish a program for the entertainment of the members at the
conclusion of the meeting. During the earl\' fall and spring, outings are held, and
during the winter months certain dates are set aside for social gatherings.
Every member of the Department of Commerce is eligible for membership in th.?
organization. In this way all the classes are associated into a single group, enabling
them to work together in order to perform all the activities in a satisfactory manner.
The organization takes pride in the fact that several high school Junior Cham-
bers of Commerce have been installed through the Department of Commerce of the
Indiana State Teachers College. Every year finds improvements and a better-
functioning and more smoothly-running club, and it is the hope of all the present
members that next \ear the organization ma\ ha\ e an e\en better \ear than the one
w hich we ha\e just enjoyed.

Pennsylvania State Commercial Contest
1 lie InlL'i-C^dLinlx CIommcTcial C^ontL'^ts arc held 111 .\la\. The stale is divided
into two sections, and a final contest is held in the liast. and a linal contest in the
West.
Each countx' has a local ort;ani/ation of commercial teachers, the president
of this organization acting as the director for the unit in contest matters. Ihis
commercial-teacher organization holds regular meetings throughout the school \ear.
All matters are worked through this hod\' and the state director.
Emphttsis is placed upon the count)' as an honor unit. When the final honors
are tabulated in Maw a list ol^ the counties is published, showing the coiiiit\' in liie
state that earned the greatest number ol honor points, the one that came second, etc.
This has a tendeiic\' to bring the schools within the ct)unt\' closer togetlser and de-
\elop a professional pride and spirit. Individual winners are also announced and
awarded medals. I irsl place in each e\ent is awarded a gold medal; second place is
awarded a siher medal ; third place is aw arded a bronze medal. Winners are chosen
on a state-wide basis.
It is the dutv of the director in each county to get the commercial teachers in
the public schools acquainted with the contest movement and arrange tor holding an
inter-school elimination contest at some con\enient place some time in .April. At
the time of this elimination contest, winners are chosen to represent the county in
the final contest.
Each count\ is allowed two entrants in the final contest lor each event. No one
ma_\' enter the final contest except those who are certified by the directors as winners
in the elimination contests. The plan is to give an opportunity to as many students
as possible to participate. Participation shouki be the result of consistent daily
excellenc\ on the part of the students in the classes. This emphasizes the training
of the manw rather than of the few.
The Junior (diamber of (Commerce of the State Teachers College sponsors the
contest movement and furnishes the awards tor the linal contest held in Maw The
Department of (AHiiniercc furnishes suitable test materials for the elimination con-
tests held in April.

Kappa Delta Pi
A (Chapter of Kappa Delta Pi, a national honorary educational fraternity, was establishetl
in the State Teachers College of Indiana, during the second semester of the school year l')27-2S.
Kappa Delta Pi is the foremost educational fraternity in normal schools, teachers colleges, and
in the departments of education of universities.
This fraternity was initiated by Dr. W. C. Bagle\ and Dr I ruman Kelly in I<)(I9 anil now
consisl^ of fift.v chapters in man.\- of the best educational institutions of the countr\-. Kappa
Delta Pi is a co-educational fraternity whose members are chosen from the upper stratum of
third and fourth-year students in undergiaduate institutions and which inckules many graduates
in colleges giving graduate credit.
The purpose of the fraternity' is: "To encourage m its members a higher degree of con-
secration to social service. To this end it shall maintain the highest educational ideals and
shall foster fellowship, scholarship, and achievement in educational work."
The requirements for membership are not necessarils' that of high scholastic standing, al-.
though the highest standing is desired, lo be eligible, all members must ha\e nine hours' work
in educational subjects at the end ol the thinl \ear aiul l\\el\e hours al the end ol the fourth
year.
The membership at present consists of Doroih\ Brubaker, Paul Carson, Irancis (Collins.
Louise Evans, .Arthur Gregory, Roy llickes. John I louse, Ethel Kerchner, Virginia Kinney,
Mary Kinter. Howard Kuhns, Irene Mert/, Johanna .Vlert/. HIener Pounds. Paul Salsgi\er,
\iola Sullivan. E^mma Trathen, ,Mary .\lice Watkeys.
To be a member of Kappa Delta Pi is an honor of no little significance. Some of the leading
educators of the L'nited States are members of the fraternits'. Because we have a chapter ot
this fraternity the attainment of high standings in classes will in the future be something more
than an empty honor. Ever\' person elected to membership here will immediately be one of a
great host of students in the country who have proved that scholastically and socially they are
among the elite. Moreover, as he goes about the country he will be welcomed into various
chapters in the cities which he visits ami will frequentl\ (ind members of this organization who
will immediately call him friend.

Alpha Phi Gamma
,'\ chapter of .Mplia Phi Camilla, a iiatioiial lionorai\ jouMialislic fraternity, was established

versity in 1919. It was made a national honorary fraternity in 1921. Since that time it has
grown until it now has chapters in colleges in Ohio. Nebraska. Louisiana, and Pennsvlvania.
The purpose of the organization is: "To unite together in a congenial group students
who are interested in the higher forms of journalism."
Those eligible for membership are: editors-in-chief, associate editors, assistant eilitors,
business managers, assistant business managers of the college \earbook and the weekly paper
who ha\e served one semester in their respective capacities; and all others who have served one

Coach George P. Miller
Coach Miller, since coming to Ineliana in the tall of HJid, has maile
a very ensiable record for himself due \o the success of the teams he has
coached. A casual perusal of the records of the football, baseball, or
basketball teams since then shows a large majority- of the games placed
on the right side of the ledger. Not onl\- does (A)ach teach athletes to
he both head\' and capable plasers. but he also instills in all the mem-
bers of his teams the spirit of fellowship and fair pla\'.
The C^oach ctimhines his s\ stem of fciolball ui such a manner that the
loose western style has just enough of the more conventional eastern
type to make it the most valuable. In the other lines of sport also mav
be seen the same judicious choice w ith the constant aim of betterment.
j-rom mediocre material in the past two seasons he has tinned out
winnmg teams in all branches of sport, and w\th his s\stem lirmly en-
trenched, the future of athletics .it Indiana is verv bright intleed.

Resume of the Football Season
Prospt-cls lor tliL- 1027 ii,r\d season wl-ic \ci\ hliic indeed when (luach Millei' lii'sl
called together ihe aspirants for berths on the team. Ot the thiri\-ti\e men who
reported there V, ere but li\e lettermen from the K)2(i team. There were great
vacancies in the line, and in the backtield onl) one man remained.
The coach however soon imbued the squad with his abundant supplx' of enthusi-
asm, and in a few da\s a \arsit\ team was being formed which promised great
things. In two weeks from the first da\- of practice the team was in tine shape to
meet .Muskingum College.
On September 24th the Red and Slate of Indiana clashed for the first time with
the Scarlet of Muskingum. The .Muskingum team greatl\- outweighed our team
and were expected by all the "dopesters" to completel\ smother Indiana. The first
quarter saw no scoring on either side, but late in the second (.[uarter, w hen the
Indiana team had been greatls' weakened b\ injuries. .Muskingum was able to push
over a touchdown. The tr\- for point was blocked. In the third quarter the teams
battled evenly again, but at the start of the last period the Indiana team began a
slow, hard drive which was onl\- stopped b\- Muskingum on their own 7-\ard line.
They kicked out of danger, and the last few minutes were spent in a fruitless attempt
to score by the aerial route. .Although defeated (>0. the i ndiana team was b\' no
means disgraced as thev fought an up-hill battle all the w a\- against a bigger, more
powerful, and reall\' better team.
.-\fter a week of light practice follow ing the opening game Coach .Miller took his
battlers into the stronghold of our ancient enem\", St. \ incent College, d he teams
were about e\enl\- matched in everything but light, anil here Indiana had the ad-
vantage, and thereby were the \ictors. 1 he first half ended w ith a 0-0 score. Early
in the third quarter St. Vincent scored a touchdown after a long drive down the
field. It looked as though the game were theirs as the fourth quarter waned, and the
Indiana team showed no concentrated attack. No one had ligured, however, on the
fight those boys had, and their determination to take a victor\- home. St. \'incent
tried a field goal from Indiana's thirty-yard line, and a veritable horde came
through the center of the line, blocked the kick, and from the mass came Davis with
the ball and plent\- of interference to dash OO \ards for a touchdown. .After this it
Two luindred sixl}'-Uvu
was all liiiiiana. After h()Ulinj» the Green and Gold, thu\- look the ball and in a fexv
jilaxs cai rii'd it oxi-i the j;oal line with the winnino points.
1 he next Salinda\, ( )clober S, Idinhoro eanie down hdiii the North, and
accustomed as they are to the breezes from Lake hrie, the\- used the air to take home
a victory. The}- presented as puzzling a passing attack as has been seen on the
(College lieltl lor a long lime and scored two touchdowns and a safely to win l()-0.
On October hth lock I la\en came to Indiana and took their annual beating on
the gi idiron to the tune (it J l-l). .Many new faces were seen in the Red and Slate
lineup as (^oach .Miller ga\e his subs a chance to gain experience.
Indiana pla\ed the following Saturda)- at California and were perhaps a trille
over-confident after the eas\' victory over Lock Ha\en because, before the\- woke u[i,
the (lalifornia boys hat! pushed o\er two touchdowns and were v. ell on the wa\- to
another. Indiana managetl to hold them until the tirsl half was o\er. but the dam-
age had been done. The C^alifornia team came on the lieLi for the second half,
cocky and delei mined, and blocked e\ervthing the Red and Slate team attempted
and besides, scored another louchilown, just as the whistle blew . to make a total of
18 points to Indiana's none.
Indiana entertained (darion the ne.xt Saturda\' at Indiana, and what an enter-
tainment it turned out to be. lor the first time in the year the boys reall}' showed
their ability on the barred lield. \\ hen the smcjke had cleared awa\', Indiana was
on the long end of a ^2-0 score, anil there was not a substitute on the bench.
The biggest blow of the season came on the nh of Ninember when Slipper}'
Rock defeated the Red and Slate 3S-U. .\o other game on the scheilule was more
important, but the team was outclassed, and the_\- fought a harti, but losing battle.
Salurda\', .\o\ember the 12th, was the day of redemption. Kent was played at
Indiana and defeated after one of the best games seen on the (;ollege field for many
a moon. 7-(_). The team had the old do (jr die expression and made the season a
success when they defeated Kent. .\o less than seven of the men who started the
game pla\'eii their last game under the colors of our .\lm.i .Mater.
The season's result shows four games won and an equal number lost. Not an
imposing record on paper, but to those who knew all the haiulicaps undergone, the
season of 1927 will go dow n in the histor\ of the (College as one of the most suc-
cessful.

A week after the opening set-back at the hands of Muskingum Coach Miller
took his promising football crew to Beatt_\' to tangle with St. \incent College. 1 he
Green and Gold boasted of a fine team coached bv Clem Crowe of Notre Dame fame,
and the\' entered the game top-heav\- favorites to win from the Red and Slate aggre-
gation.
1 he St. \ incent team had all the decepti\eness and speed v, ith which the\' were
credited and in the first half of the game pushed Indiana up and down the field, but
they alwavs lacked the punch to push the ball over the goal line. The half ended
0-0 v\ith the ball deep in Indiana's territory.
Coach Miller between halves gave the bo\s one of the pep talks for w hich he is
noted, and th'e_\' returned to the field an entirely different team. St. Vincent in the
early part of the third quarter, by a powerful series of line plays, aided and abbetted
by several penalties took the ball deep into Indiana's territor\' anel tinall\ plunged
it across for a touchdown. The try for point was wide.
Indiana seemed to go into some sort of a lethargy as the period wore on, and as
the fourth period started, it found Indiana on the short end of a (vO >.core. St.
Vincent on a fumble obtained the ball on huliana's .^O-vard line and after two
ineffectual jabs at the line resorted to a place kick to add to their total score. It
seemed to casual observers that the V, hole of Indiana's line was through to block
the kick, but it remains as history that from the mess ".Mike" Davis appeared with
the ball and with a squad of interference ran 60 \ards for the six points that tied
the score. The tr\' for point was missed by Captain Graf.
St. Vincent received the kick-off and lost the ball immediately on downs. The
Indiana offensive then began to function in a proper manner, and in a dozen or so
plays Paul Muschella carried the ball over from the 2-yard line. In the resulting
confusion little attention was paid to the fact that the tr\- for point was missed again.
This was the first meeting in football betvseen the two institutions for a period of
three _\'ears, and the victory was a source of great pleasure to all Red and Slate well-
wishers.

Kent College turnished the opposition lor the closing game of the 1927 football
season on November 12th. The Ohio bo\s came to the Keystone State with a won-
derful record and a strong de^ire to be the lirst Kent team to defeat Indiana on the
gridiron.
In this game eight Indiana pla\ers made their last appearance in a Red and
Slate uniform. The game was exciting from the opening whistle till the closing
minute with fortune favoring one team and then the other.
Indiana fecei\ed the opening kick-off. and .Malcolm ran it back to the hiLliana
forty-\ard line. On the ne.\t pla\' Indiana fumbled, and Kent recovered on
Indiana's -iT-sard line. 'rhe\- matle a tirst down in short order, but Indiana took
the ball on downs on their own 20-\ard line. Salsgiver kicked out of danger, and
in a short time the ball was in Indiana's possession in Kent's territory. Shortly
after the second quarter endcLl. Kent attempted one of their famous (]uick kicks.
The kick was blocketl. and Patterson scooped the ball up and ran about K) vards for
a touchdown. Salsgi\er kicked the extra |ioint in perfect form.
Kent at once started a forward-passing attack and. as the half entieil. had the
ball on Indiana's five-}'ard line, their last offensi\e threat.
The second half consisted mainl\- of a sustaineil Indiana attack that threatened
to crush the Blue and Ciold at anv minute, but w hich alwa\ s stopped JList short of
the last white line. .\s the game ended, Kent was stubbornly resisting a powerful
line attack of Indiana's with the ball in the ver\' shadows of the Kent goal posts.
This game made the season a distinct success for Indiana as it not onl>' evened
up the season's record of wins and losses but also ser\ed a lit closing i.lish for the
fall menu of athletics at Indiana.

IniniL'dialeh allur the 1 hank^y\ ing xacalion Coach .MiIIlt i.sMied a call leu-
candidates for the basketball team. The new gym was not yet ready for use and
practice was held but twice a week at the local high school. Among the men who
reported were four lettermen from last year's squad and a couple of last year's
scrubs. Along with these boys were a host of first class material from the Fresh-
man class.
January 7th, just three days after returnin,^ from the Christmas holidays, the
team went to Lock Haven for the first game. It was also the opener for Lock
Haven, and the game surely looked the part of an earlv season contest as play was
ragged on both sides. Indiana turned out to have the better "shots" however and
won a rather easy \'ictory 42-18.
Kent was the next opponent of the Red and Slate and appeared at tlie local
Armory on the 13th of January. Thev had a big, husky, veteran team and, in spite
of the determined efforts of the Varsity, Kerrt won by the score of 24-20. The fol-
lowing day a hurried trip was made to California, and the team turned in their
worst game of the season, being defeated by 20 points. Something was radically
wrong with the whole crew, for the\- played far beneath their regular form.
Clarion made their appearance against the I^ed and Slate at the .'Xrmorv and
were sent home stinging untler a decisive defeat by the score of 39-20. I he entire
squad of 14 men saw service in this game and everyone looked good.
A rather disastrous trip w as taken the following ueek-end when on successive
days Kent and Slipper\- Rock defeated Coach Miller's team by the close scores of
25-21 and 35-25. In both games the Indiana boys led up to the final few minutes
only to lose out because of a couple of fine rallies by the opponents.
February 1 1th brought Juniata V. M. C. A. to furnish the opposition in the new
gym. The team was all primed to go after being defeated by a weak Clarion team
at Clarion the week before. Juniata brought a clever set of basketeers, and the
game was nip and tuck until the final moments when a couple of neat baskets put
Indiana on the long end of a 23-18 score.
California came to Indiana on the 18th expecting an eas\' \ictory but went home
\ictims of a fighting team that didn't know when it was beaten and staged a last
minute rally to overcome a three-point lead and to win 25-22. Since entering the
new gym, the team has been playing much better basketball and looks entirely
different from the team that took the fioor against Lock Haven in the season's
opener.
A long trip to Fdiiiboro on the last Saturda\ in lebruar\' proved too much, and
the Red and White of the northern schcjol was \er\- much in evidence as they rode
rough-shod to an easy 50-18 victory. Edinboro has a really great team, and when
they come to Indiana, a banner game is anticipated.
The first defeat in the new gym was suffered on .March ^rd when Slippery Kock
defeated the Varsity by a score of 20-21. Indiana missed plenl\ of shots and reall\'
lost their own game.
On the schedule )-et remain games with Lock lla\en. 1-dinboro, and Shippens-
burg all on the home fioor. It is expecting a great deal perhaps but with the recent
improvement in not only the playing but also the spirit of the team all these games
should go on the right side of the ledger to end a \ery successful basketball season
for the Varsit}.

Baseball, 1927
In the earlv part of April (jjacn .Miller called tii.i;elher the candidates for the
baseball team. There were six lettermeii in the sciiiad, and to this number there
were addetl about lilteen new men. After a rather Lnisiiccessfnl perioil of [irelimin-
ary practice, which was yreallx hampered by the cold, wet weather, the season was
opened with Juniata ^'. M. C. A. as the opponents. Laixton twirled tine ball for the
Red and Slate until the se\enlh inning when the Juniata bo\s sohed his deli\er\'
and together with some \ery loose support ox'ercame the two-run lead which Indiana
held and pushed five runs across the platter. The following inning the>' added three
more to make a total of eight, and when Indiana had their last bats in the ninth, trv
as thev would, the necessar\' punch was lacking, and the game ended 8-2 in favor of
Juniata.
huhana on the following Saturila\- took their bats and went to St. N'incent where
a very strong Green and Gold team earnetl a '^)-4 \ictory. Captain Salsgix'er was
injure(.l in the early part of the game, and this no doubt had a great deal to do with
Indiana's defeat.
The Green and While of Slippers Rock was the next team to appear on the
College campus, aiul the\ made a \er\' uncompromising appearance. Whether their
bats were loaded with dxnamile or w hether our pitchers had lame arms is still an
unsohed m\ sterw but the fact remains that they hammered e\ery kind of a pitcher
placed before them and, when nine ilreary innings had passetl, were leading b\' the
score of 31-2.
The Red ami Slate team attempted to stage a comeback on two successi\e Sat-
urda\s against St. X'incent and (California, but Jupiter Plu\ius took a hand in pro-
ceedings shortl) before the game time each day, and neither game was pla\ed.
On Ma\ 21st Indiana tra\eled to California and plaved a brand of ball which
would ha\'e made an\ opponent look sick and in the eleventh inning won a hectic
struggle b\- the score of 5-3.
Slippery Rock was schedLiled as the last foe, but just as the team was ready to
board their bus for Slippers Rock, word came that it was raining in that tow n. and
thus the season ended rather unsatisfactorily.
Prospects for the 1928 team are good with li\e lettermen back aiul a host of
promising material ; so with the good wishes of the weatherman the Indiana fans
mav look forwanl to a snappy ball club at the College.

Track
The track team kept pace with the other teams in ha\ing a \ er\ suc-
cessful season in 1Q27. The team was coached hv a newcomer at
Indiana, Coach Earl E. Prugh. Coach Prugh is from the .Middle West,
and he certainix taught the bens how to >tep fast and to do all the other
necessities ol a gooi.1 track team.
The team was first seen in action in the L niversitv of Penns\lvania
Relay Carnival where Captain Walter Patterson led his rela\- team to
lhii\i place in the mile relay for Stale Teachers Colleges. On the
wa\ home from Philadelphia the team stopped long enough at West
(diester to gi\e the strong track team of that school a gooi.1 scare and lost
Ihc meet b\ onl\ h\e points. West Chester 4t. Indian.! 40.
The fust Saturi.la\ in May (."arnegie lech Plebes came to Indiana and
went back to Pittsburgh with a one-point victory. The following Sat-
m' (.lax Indiana in a triangular meet with California and Clarion easily
out-distanced the two \isiting teams to score an eas\' and all-round
\ ictory.
(loach Piugh and (Captain Patterson are to be congi atulated on the
line showing of the team as there were but three \eterans on the team,
and practicallx all the material was developed during the season by the
earnest ellorts of these two.

progress goes all the praise in the world. To those, who game after
game sit on the bench helping lor their chance, goes a great share of the
glory which accompanies 1 ndianas winning teams. To those who take

Tennis - - Spring, 1927
Tennis is not \et recognized as an establishecl sport at Indiana. However, each
year more and more students, both men and women, are indulging in this sport.
Tennis is sometimes looked upion as a "child's" game. This impression is gotten,
no doubt, from the fact that tennis looks like an ea.sy game to plaw This impres-
sion, ho\ve\er. is fast disappearing, and tennis will very sKortl\' come into its own.
W hen the call was issued last spring for candidates, a large number of men and
women reported. The candidates worked diligently every day under the capable
supervision of W'ally Guthrie, a tennis enthusiast from Indiana. No duel matches
were scheduled: all effort was concentrated on the tournament which was to be held
at California Normal. The lournamenl ne\er materialized due to the inclement
weather conditions existing last spring. .Although the pla\ers were denied the
privilege of pla_\-ing in the tournamenl. each member of the si.|iiad lelt that he was
amplv repaid for his efforts in other wa\ s.
The squad consisted of the following men and women:
William Paterick. Gladstone Kocher, .\rlhur Pentz. Claire Borland, Flavia Tay-
lor. Pearl Compton. Frances Spraggon. .\lar\ Henderson. Gertrude .Miller, Frances
.McGahan, .Marion \\ aldron, and .Marv l)r\iie.
.\ number of these men and women are hack at school this \ ear. and with these
as a nucleus, we look forwaid to a successful season during U'ZS.
Tennis - - Summer, 1928
Tennis seemed to be a \er\ popular sport during the summer session. The
school tournament was the most successful e\er held at Indiana during summer
school. f-i\e matches were schedulei.1 during the summer. Indiana winning four of
them.
The winners of the school tournament were as follows: .Men's Singles. F. W.
Beers: .Men's Doubles. F. W. Beers and Gladstone Kocher: Girls' Singles, M.
Flaxia Ta\lor: Girls' Doubles. M. Flaxia Ta\lor and .Martha .Mcl.ain: .Mixed
Doubles. William Paterick and I lelen l\r;imer.
The scores of the matches engageil in during the summer were :

Indiana Tennis (^lub, 4 - - - - - . Indiana. 2

with gold miniature basketballs. The runnersup receiexd the same awards in siher,

The success of this initial tournament at Indiana was possible onl\' because of

bi<ii;er and better tournament is planned.

If You've Heard This — Stop Me
"Direct experience is tiie best way to gain knowledge of anv subject," says Pro-
fessor Whasit of 1. S. T. C. "And in order that there ma\' be better understanding
between the men ant! the co-eds at Indiana, the faculty declare a re\ersal of their
residences."
The following e\ents, which occurred after said re\ersal. 1 will set down, not as
they happened, but as they occur to me.
Oh. the girls were deliciousls' excited on 1 hurM.lay evening o\er their ilarling
rooms, adorable house mothers, and simplv gorgeous beds. .And — "M\' dear, to
think of being allowed to do — well, just an\'thin:; — isn't it too blissful?" was heard
on all sides.
Ho\\e\'er. when ihe alarm (on the alarm clock) rang rrielax morning at six-
thirtv and it was necessarx to rise to close the window, the cold air which came
through \oile nighties and silk p.j's told them that the snow was at least eight inches
deep. Back to bed till seven — just to let the room warm up. Business of getting
dressed till twentv after seven. Bang of the front door. Then the tramp, tramp,
tramp, through the snow.
".M\' dear, I'm almost frozen. Oh. my knees are cold — and m\' hands. 1 just
know m\' nose will be red. and w hen 1 go to the dining room those horrid men will —
m\' dear, this will sla\- me."
But when the girls arrived at school at seven-thirt\-three all was O. K. again,
for, with handkerchiefs to noses and galoshes flapping they marched straight to the
training table where the\' got some nice soft toast. .Meanwhile — at exactly seven-
thirty-five by ,Miss Swisher's watch Bob f-ee and Roy Friel came hurr\'ing in. Miss
Swisher rushed up to them with outstretched arms — not in welcome though. Point-
ing to her watch she said, "Boys, etc., etc., etc."
"But, Miss Swisher," remonstrated Bob, "we didn't hear the cow bell! "
Friday evening after dinner most of the girls went to the "V" room to chat
about "what frights some of the 'sisters' looked when they came in to breakfast, etc."
.\ \ery few of the boldest girls sneaked in to the dance, but the\- made a quick exit
through the window when Dean W'hitmyre came in. It seems that some of the boys
had been clicking their heels which is \er>' ungentlemanl\' — indeed yes.
.After lunch the girls came around to the mail window, obviousl\' to look for let-
ters, but reall.\- to see their bo\- friends and make dates for the basketball game. The
game was a huge success, largel\', it may be suppo>ed, because the cheering was leJ
b\- Babe .McClelland and Sara Gra\-.
Saturday evening before the orchestra came the fellcjw s coaxed Llu\ d I lill to pla\'
the piano, and then hung around the door making slv overtures to the feminine stag
line. The effect of the girls' jazz band was pretty keen up to the moment when Dean
W'hitmyre. ever on the alert as to the comluct of his "boys" stopped Leonard and
Williams and said. "Boys, this is no place to dn the (Charleston. This is Recreation
Hall, not the gymnasium."
.^t8:lT when the orchestra plaxed "lliime Sweet Ihime" the .tiirls all rushed nut
to get their wraps. .Mr. Whitm\ie lingered near the telephone booth for about a
half hour because he suspected that some of the girls would tr\' to sneak into the
building with ice cream for their men. .Most of the girls hurried down town to the
movies, but some of them gathered in Sharkey's to discuss life's big problems.
"Success" was discussed from e\erv angle. Barbara W'acht bet all the girls a
"lemon coc" that within fi\e years she would be successful in breaking into the mens'
dorm. .And was she? Duntesk!

Into an olliee. which fornierh had heeii .Miss Stewarts, we went, and lonnd .Mr.
W lntm\ le parked in her chair. lie was finishing up a long list of assignments lor
rooms when he saw hriel coming throngh the door.
'"l-riel." he said, "1 want \on to take the room next to me. No more monke\-
business from \ou."
Secrist and Bilner came lunnmg into the ollice all out of breath. [5ellen was
standing in the micLlle of the room, and thev collidei.1.
"Bo\s!" shouted the Dean, "Remember you are to be the futuie teachers of the
nation, so please don't do an\lhing to lower the standards of our institution."
"We received our room assignments and walked out toward the central elexator.
"r-*eck" .McKnight, Swisher, Domb. .\upp. Simpson, and "Tiny" Eisaman were all
waiting for it. JList then Leonard came down the hall and said, "Ring the bell.'
Schimmel rang, and the elevator woman came dropping elown through space from
somewhere in the attic. She openei.1 the cage, anel we all \elled. "Thank vou," ani.l
proceetled to park on her stool.
"Second floor, please," said Eisaman.
.\t second floor we all piled out and proceeded to hunt for our respective rooms —
the\' should ha\e been respected rooms. jMine was 201 A, and say, it surely was a
peach. 1 wonder who hatl that room before 1 came! .As soon as 1 got mv room ir.
order. 1 walked out into the hall to see the sights. The first thing that drew mv at-
tention was someone coming down the hall in his bath-robe with a suit of clothes
under his arms. It was Dinty Erye galloping to the ironing board, just then the
gong sounded for the eight o'clock class, and then doors sounded all oxer the hall.
The fellows came rushing down toward the elevator. "Sugar" Barr came out of his
room with an arm full of books, and, seeing that the elevator woman had already
closed the gate, he \elled, "Elexator. please, elexator! " — but too late for both of
them, for the elexator started down at the instant that "Sugar" ran into the large
statue of Elermes. No, poor "Sugar" didn't make that class on time.
Nothing exciting or out of the ordinary happened until lunch time came. It was
a great sight to see all the girls coming into the dining room at the xxest entrance,
while the boys all walked down the hallwax' that ran past L3ean W hitmxre's oflke.
We got a big kick out of it .Ul. While we were eating. Mr. W hitmxre sounded the
gong for attention.

where 1 met Cdiiick" .\ike\' taking his girl to the "infirm." I dropped in to see Bill
('iaile\ and found him in a terrible mood.
"W hats wrong. Bill"' I said.
"(Ian \i)u imagine it — I can't get a guest card to take ".Marg" to the dance to-
night. W hilm\ re said she's been up here too much of late: can \()u imagine that?'
"(dieer up. kid. she is going to lake \(ili to the show after the dance, isn't she?"
This diiln'l help \er\- much, so I left him still cursing restrictions. Poor Bill. I
pitied him.
.\l ihe Satiirda\ night ilance all the bo\'s danced together. The girls stood around
the lower entrance and looke^l an.\iousl\- for bo\s to dance with them; the bo\s kept
looking in the direction of the girls and commented on their bashf'ulness. As I
passed Butts and Bennv. I heard Benny say. "Gee kid. I wish Searles and Shiister
would ask us for a tiance. 1 just love to dance with them.
.Mar\' Ellis walked o\er to Tom Nupp and pleaded with Tom to get out on the
floor Tom hated to dance with .Mary, for she tramped on his toes, but he con-
sented to tr\' and teach her if she would let him lead.
.After the dance was o\er the boys went up lo their rooms to gel their coats anti
hats while the girls waited outside for them. \\ hile v, ailing for the bo\'s to come
down, the}' started to sing "I low Dry I am. " but .Mr. W'hitmvre came out and said,
"Cjirls, girls, stop, that racket. If \ou can'l act like gentlewomen. 1 shall be obliged
to tell .Miss Stewart. Now. please be quiet, or I won't allow the bo\ s out to-night."
Soon the boys came down the halls in groups of si.x; the girls took their respective
bo\s b\- the arms and started down toward the Ritz. Some of the fellows ilidn't
have a girl, so the\ had to walk in a group by themsehes. .\fter the show the fel-
lows came back m aiul reported lo their hall proctors. W hen .Mr. W hitmyre check-
ed up on the list, ii was found that I-reddie Bennett and Kov llickes were missing.
Procior .Mar\ in \\ illiams and Joe Little, the cop, started out to look for them. In

sleeve of my pajamas.
Listen." saiti he. "I hear a feirinine \oice. Hear it?" Sure enough I could
hear the xuice ot a girl, and it was m our hall. We started out to look for the girl,
w hen we ran on to "W a Wd" \\ hitm\ re. (^an \(iu imagine what he was doingr Me

casionally expressei.1 this pleasure li\ laughing. This was the voice Ra\ IkuI mis-
taken for a girl's \(iice. We rescued "W a W a" and look him to heti with us where
he stayed until morning.
Ray couldn't sleep anymore so we got up and w alked out toward the tire escape,
"Who's that sitting out there looking at the moon"^"
"1 don't know," said Raw "but let's see!"
W hen we sneaked close enough to see who it w as. we discoxeretl the person to be
"W'ib" Leonard. Lie was crooning a little lo\e tune to "Babe" as he ga/.ed long-
ingl\ at the Gibson girl, joe surely has it bad. We didn't distrub him but left him
to mourn over his fate. 1 felt tired, so 1 left Ra\' in the hall and went back in to iti\'
room. In a lew moments I was fast asleep,
"1 lew come out of it," shouted Bill Cjailey. "What lio ycni mean going to sleep

sore if she knows you did this. Come on, come to bed and t|uit talking hi tiarn

In iiiiisl fluids liuli.ina'.s slamlards haw hci'ii raised so thai iIicn icall\ aw worthx
of tlu' name "TeacliLTs Collc.i^c"; Iiowuvlt. \\i- feel that there are Mime departments
m which the efiicienc\' must he raised il we are to keep pace with the prosperity of
the school and w ith organizations in other institutions.
The first department to be attaci<ed is the dining room. In this department there
seems to l^e an utter lack of or^ani/.atinn. Time, ener»\ . and e\en st)up are wasted
thoughtlessh- on e\er\ hand. Our first suggestion would he to have a large gong
placed w here the grace bell is at present. This bell would be operated by Patterson.
.\t the sound of the first gong every one should lower his ladle into one of the fifty-
se\en varieties and let it remain there until the second gong is sounded when he
should lift the ladle to his lips and partake of its contents, (from the side of the
ladle). .After a time the third gong would sound lor a refill, and so on until ever\-
one had finished his soup. .\t this point of procedure "time out" would be called for
those who wanted a second helping to ha\'e it; then Pat would resume operations ai
the gong. E:\er\iine would carr\ with him an umbrella in case Pat should become
excited and start pounding the gong too fast.
The Home Economics and Physics Departments could work out the time inter-
\als on a scientific basis so that there would be the correct amount of time between
dips. Don't \ou think that visitors would he impressed at the sight of those twelve
himdretl soup ladles being lowered and raised simullanousl}'?' That is efficiency.
.\ lot of time could also be sa\ed b\- installing a s\stem of o\er-head pipes in
the dining room to substitute for the present tea and coffee service. From the main
line pipes could leai.1 elow n to the indixidual places. When one craved drink he
wouki but ha\e to turn the pet cock and presto, there's \our liquor.
I here could e\en be a system worked out to eliminate the trouble of serving in-
di\ idual plates. .A moving conveyance belt, something like the one which composes
the l-ord assembK' line could be installed around the edge of each table. The stu-
dents would be supplied with knixes. forks and spodiis. The nourishment could be
placed on the belt and the belt set in motion, dhen as the footi passed, the student
could partake of each article in the (.|uantil\' deser\ed.
.■\ description of other labor sa\ing de\ ices such as an automatic trafiic director
for Leonard hall. subwa\s to con\'e\- students to and from classes, and automatic
shoe buttoners will be left to your own imagination.
